Merry Christmas, YC! I thought I'd set an example and go for the first picture posting. My Santee was Castelle, who I was extremely happy to get because she has an uber-cool character!  I had a fun time drawing her, carrying a star and trying to be festive. Oh yeah, that Santa in the moon is absolutely clipart. Hope you like it, Castelle! ;D |

This is incredible work, Tempest, perhaps the best I have seen from you yet! The way you drew this was so vivid. You spared to details with this one! This is a fine work, and I'm sure she will be very pleased with this, great work!

Heh, heh. This is a great picture. Colors are bright, shading's also eye-catching, I also like the pose, too. ^^ It's very cute. I also am a fan of the wings and the detail in 'em... Oh, and about your tree there... Teach me how to make trees that don't look more like cotton candy. XD I can never make decent trees.

WOW!!! I.. I LOVE it! It's going straight on my desktop! ^_^ Odd that you're my santa, though.. I just drew your char the other day  Funny story actually. I wasn't going to say anything about it until I had it finished - I'm just now done with the lineart. Thanks much, and merry Christmas!! |

To make trees: Color green, and smudge highlights and shadows. Simple, really - just kinda time consuming, lmao. Castelle - I'm glad you like it! And I can't wait to see that pic!  That is a coincidence that I got you, but a good one! |

Wow, dude that is nice! I'm glad Castelle liked it! What I want to know is, how did you make that hair? It's so, realistic in a way. I dunno, that's my favorite part of the pic. XD *I'm so wierd*

I've said it before but -- your comic-eqsue shading style is the sex.
No doubt about it. ^^;
I really like the hair, too -- you pulled that off very well. :3
Also, could I get you sometime to elaborate on how you made the tree look, well, like that? That kind of detail is, I'm sure, easy as the dickens, but I'd still like to see...

Ooh, shiny objects. XD The tree and the hair are really good in this picture. They must've taken a bit of time to complete. Great job!

This is great, Tempest! I like how you did a lot of things on this picture using some nice techniques, like on your target's hair or on the Christmas tree. And that random image of Santa and his reindeer pets is the icing on the cake XD
W-done!!1 =D
